Full Frontal is a one-man, one-act play by English writer Michael Hastings. It premièred at the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs in 1979 with Winston Ntshona performing and Rufus Collins directing,[1] and was revised by the author for a production at Ovalhouse in 2001.[2]
The play is a monologue by Gabriel Nkoke - a man born in Nigeria but raised almost all his life in England. He describes himself as "the new type of man. I'm neither here, nor there" - delivered to an unseen representative of the National Front, which Gabriel is at first seen trying to join because he agrees with their racialist agenda.
